At Express FM we are delighted to welcome The Southern Co-operative as a new sponsor. Head of Brand Engagement and Communication for the group, Ted Merdler, says "Being a locally owned business, we think that working with Express FM is an ideal way of communicating with our communities, members and colleagues in the Portsmouth area, especially as Express FM is also a community based organisation. We will be involving our colleagues and members in some exciting community projects through Express FM this year!"

In support of Help for Heroes, the charity founded in 2007 to support servicemen and women wounded in the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan, Gill Shaw’s photographic exhibition is a thought-provoking and emotional record of experiences and traumas on the battlefield and at home.

Having been successful in our bid to the Transformation Fund, and in partnership with The New Theatre Royal, The Living Memories project is well underway. We began by collecting local peoples stories and memories and these are forming the basis of a radio soap to be broadcast here on 93.7 Express FM, to be known as Conway Street. The soap itself is being produced and presented by local people and is due to be aired on 12th April 2010.
